Bondi Resort Blog

Come on into our Blog for a look at the wonderful world we've got to share! With over 240 hectares (600 acres) of wilderness woodlands surrounding the resort, just ten minutes from Algonquin Park, we feature over 400 metres (1200’) of waterfront and beach; boat rentals; summer hiking trails winding through fields and woods; 20 km. of groomed cross country ski trails and snowshoeing in winter; access to nearby snowmobile trails for sledders, and a toboggan hill for the young at heart.

The Chowder Bowl


Clams are at the Post. The race is underway.

It was very hands-on this year, since Brian, Dave and Mike were away jet boating at Niagara, but we had plenty of experienced help getting clams to the start line.

Ben Boivin represented the District of Muskoka. Kerri MacDonald came as our token papparazzi. And the Muskoka Music Men, in the quartet form of Ken, Mans, Roy and Bob showed up in fine voice to entertain. This was the first year the weather was really wonderful for this quartet -- god bless 'em, they've sung for us through hurricane winds, torrential storms that shut off the lights, and scattered showers. Undaunted, and always in tune, they truly help make this a great occasion.

This year, they are racing "My Wild Racing Clam", in the #38 Post Position.

Everybody gets into the act, with almost 50 Clams coming to the start for our 25th Anniversary Race.
Achmed the cat has an entry... a wild card, 'Leader of IsClam'

The grand finale is tomorrow morning, 8.30, just before we hit the lake for the Marathon Swim.
